When winters arrives,

I will feel their spirit,

Surrounded by those,

She hardly knows. …

Kindness,

Takes many forms.

Even unexpected, …

It is wonderful,

And heart-warming,

To naturally arise,

With a morning smile. …

Wooden sticks and leaves,

Fashioned as in a dream, …

When the car is washed, …

Cobblestones,

Laid by hand.

An art now distant, …

The fruits of our labor,

Take time.

And when prepared, ….

Rainbows often appear,

After thunderstorms.

Now looking back, …
